Cette Tortue se PECHE au bassin de Scholazar , Dans le fleuve nommer ; Le chemin de la Gardienne de la vie.
5% de loot en pechant.
Bon jeu

Commentaire de Narsil

Il s'agit d'une monture ajoutée dans le patch 3.1.
Elle se loot en pêchant dans n'importe quel banc de poissons de Norfendre.
Le taux de loot est extrèmement rare.

Commentaire de Toundraa

J'ai essayé plusieurs zones de pêche mais je l'ai finalement eu dans les Grisonnes, où apparemment le taux de drop est le plus élevé (plus de 3700 essais)

This is one of the new mounts added in 3.1.

It is obtainable only by fishing in Northrend Pools and according to GM comments it has a very, very low drop rate.

It will be Normal Land mount speed(60% increase) while both on land and in water making it 10% faster than the Druid's Aquatic Form while swimming. Coupled with the Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole you can swim with the fishes and hold your breath forever!

While it might be useful for getting around while fishing, you cannot fish while mounted on it. It appears to be more useful as a bank mount at this point and should be quite effective at blocking mailboxes or popular NPCs.

Commentaire de 303838

According to several players that have caught it and posted on El's Anglin, the swim speed increase is only 60%

EDIT: This screenshot of the tool tip confirms that it is a 60% swim speed increase, 0% land speed increase

Commentaire de 303838

This mount currently has the same model as the TCG riding turtle as well as the various Kalu'ak turtle riders

EDIT: Comment now seems redundant as we have screen shot confirmation that it does in fact, have a different colour scheme (Blue and green). As far as i can tell, the actual MODEL itself is still the same

Commentaire de 303838

As main tank, i plan to use this in EVERY OS that we do, just so the rest of the raid has to wait for me to catch up and witness the awesomeness of my mount

Commentaire de 159525

consider the fact your speed in water is normally reduced to 66%, a 130% increase is accurate, as it removes the speed decrease from swimming naturally, plus 60% speed increase, total 126, close enough.

Commentaire de Grehan

Actually, I've been on the test realm to find that an epic ground mount does not have a speed increase while swimming. If it has any sort of speed increase at all, know that it was so small that I didn't notice a difference from normal swim speed.

Therefore, this mount is still perfectly useful in the water. It will move faster than any other mount or form in the water, spare a druid in aquatic form using the speed glyph. Woo, fishing!

And, of course, you can get underwater breath in a number of ways to match the druids'. I use a Deepdive Helmet . You could also get the Kalu'ak Fishing Pole. For that matter, just carry around a few potions.

Commentaire de Heimdallen

The name of the achievement for this (Turtles all the way down) is, most surely, a reference to the lecture once given by a well known scientist, some say it was Bertrand Russel, on astronomy. When he described how the earth is a sphere and orbits around the sun and the sun around the center of the galaxy, a little old woman stood up and said "What you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise". The scientist then asked "What's the tortoise standing on?" and the woman replied "You're very clever, young man, very clever! But it's turtles all the way down!".

Quoted from "A Brief History of Time", by Stephen Hawking. I remembered the story as it was so amusing to me when I read it years ago, and when I saw the name of the achievement and what it was for, it seemed it could be no coincidence and there must be an astronomy or cosmology buff at Blizz who liked the story also. I had to go pull out the book and find the part about that. =] Too funny! The World of Warcraft is clearly Turtles All the Way Down!

Commentaire de 350413

You do not need to be a high level fisherman to get this mount. I started with a fishing skill of 0 this afternoon and only fished Northrend pools. I got mostly junk, but got my turtle as I hit 143 fishing.

Commentaire de 232756

This mount ONLY drops from Schools of any kind of fish in Northrend. Don't bother wasting your time fishing in random bodies of water. If you aren't fishing in a school, you WILL not get this mount. I must of fished nearly 1000 fish, and then i decided to start fishing from school, and i got it probably 15 casts in.

Commentaire de rolled64

Just a note, this is NOT a 60% mount on land. It moves at normal running speed on land, and gives you a 60% increase to your speed in the water.

Edit: The speed increase was actually buffed in 2016. Now it, along with every other water mount increases swim speed to a total of 135% normal speed, which is a much better improvement.

Swim speed without mount = 67% of running speed on land
Swim speed with any kind of water mount = 135% of running speed on land

Previous swim speed with turtle was 67% *1.6 = approx 107% of running speed (when it was 60% increase).

Commentaire de 49893

I've spent about three days fishing up this mount, finally got it on my 1350th cast (or so).

Here's my advice to prospective fishers:

1) Go to a region that has a low active fisher population, but a high concentration of easy-to-find fishing nodes. Recommendations include Crystalsong Forest (Glassfin Minnow schools), The Frozen Sea south of Borean Tundra (Deep Sea Monsterbelly and Moonglow Cuttlefish schools), and the lakes in Howling Fjord (Fangtooth Herring and the occasional Glacial Salmon schools). I hear other fishermen have good success in Sholazar Basin as well (Nettlefish schools).

1a) If you're trying to get the "One That Didn't Get Away" achievement, fish in Howling Fjord for a good shot at a Dark Herring. I caught *three* of these while fishing for this mount.

2) Make sure you're more or less alone. Some of these areas can support 1-2 other fishermen fishing from the same set of node spawns (Frozen Sea, Howling Fjord), whereas others can be ruined by having one other person around (Crystalsong).

3) Don't expect to make a *ton* of money doing this. You can make some, but you'll likely tank the market for your fish if you sell too many too fast.

4) Have lots of patience. As I said, it took me over a thousand casts to get my mount. Don't do it all in one sitting, space it out over a period of days. I spent a few hours each day, spaced out over the course of the day, for about 3 days to get my mount.

Good luck everyone.

Commentaire de 193955

Got this mount today, given poor luck the drop came after about a fair amount of fish (well over the thousand mark, probably two).

It appears to have no "mount special" as of 18/4/09 Patch 3.1 (pre third restart) using mount special or the space bar seems to reset the animation cycle. Hopefully they give it one and it doesn't turn in to another hippogryph with no landing animation. Rider animation is also fixed and the mount will sway independent of the rider. (exhibited on a Tauren)

Patch 3.2 introduced a /mountspecial action to the mount.

The turtle will now jump and hide inside it's shell for a few seconds and then pop back out with another jump.

Edit: Thanks Pipolla

Commentaire de silverreno

contrary to what some people are saying, the drop rate to the turtle can indeed have a very miserable drop rate. i have been farming literally over 30 hours ( i have no life). i have so far fished up 8 dark herrings, and like 4000+ fish, and no turtle as of yet. this can have a completely HORRIBLE drop rate. those people who get it in 2 casts are merely lucky. do NOT count on getting this in 200 casts like so many people are posting. this is a huge farm. you MIGHT get it fast, but dont count on it.

Commentaire de MattimusPrime

That's why the best way to fish for this mount is not to be 100% focused on getting it. I used it as an excuse to fish up a ton of food that I otherwise couldn't muster up the drive to do. Now my guild bank is fully stocked with AP, Spellpower, and Haste Rating food.

I've also got a ton of Black Jelly for myself.

You'll burn yourself out farming specifically for this mount. Set aside a couple hours here and there to farm up lots of foodstuffs for you and your guild/friends, and the time will go by a little bit faster since you won't be constantly disappointed when you fish up food... but rather, pleasantly surprised when you finally get your turtle!

It spoils the Sea Turtle to think of it as a grueling ordeal.

Yes, a pool is slang for "school of fish."

Commentaire de Kraan

Picked this up tonight after fishing every night since Wednesday 22nd April (patch) on EU realms. To dispell some common misconceptions, the item is a blue drop and enters your backpack straight away like anything else you'd fish up. There is no prompt to bind on pickup, this is an urban myth. The Achievement "Turtles All The Way Down" is granted as soon as the item enters your bags.

Tried fishing in the Frozen Sea outside Borean Tundra for the first couple of nights in various pools of fish along the coast and got nothing. Moved on to Howling Fjord for the next few nights and did a few coastline circuits of pools there, still got nothing. Finally fished the sucker up out of a pool of Dragonfin Angelfish in the river splitting Dragonblight and Grizzly Hills. The winning pool was around 10, 55 but please remember that it is an RNG from fishing pools so don't expect to fish it up there just because I did.

It's such a beautiful looking mount, the giant eyes set it apart from the generic tigers and bears you see around Dalaran. Love it to bits!

Commentaire de tarunloko

While playing an alt after hours of fishing i came across this
made me sad :(

Commentaire de Cocomatona

We should all understand by now that this mount gives no land speed bonus, but there seem to be a lot of conflicting reports of just how fast this turtle is in the water. I got one on live and have tested it against aquatic form. All of these numbers have been confirmed through use of the speed readout on the map of the addon Carbonite.

All math considers normal running speed to be 100%.

In the water this mount increases swim speed by 60%. Normal swim speed is approximately 66.66% (two thirds) of normal run speed.
66.66 (normal swim speed) * 1.6 (speed multiplier from the turtle) = 106.656
What this means is that in the water the turtle will move at about 107% of normal running speed.

Now let's look at the boost from a druid's Aquatic Form. Unglyphed aquatic form increases swim speed by 50%.
66.66 * 1.5 = 99.99
So a druid in aquatic form is moving at about 100% of normal run speed.
With the Glyph of Aquatic Form the form's swim speed bonus increases to 100%.
66.66 * 2 = 133.32
So druids with this glyph swim at 133% of normal running speed.

In the end this very rare mount offers a very small advantage over unglyphed aquatic form and is a rather large downgrade from glyphed aquatic form.

Commentaire de 310680

You'll get the achievement as soon as you "fish up" the item, not after you click on it to learn the spell. Its nice that the achievement banner comes up because after fishing for a long amount of time, I was worried that it would drop into my bag and I wouldn't notice. Don't worry, when you get it, you can't miss it!

Commentaire de 340759

If you're in a raiding guild progressing in Ulduar (or any other place for that matter) I can very much recommend fishing only Glacial Salmon, Nettlefish and Musselback Sculpin while grinding this cute guy. So far I've gotten fish sufficient to about 250 Fish Feasts, and I'm suspecting there will be a lot more to come before I finally get to ride my future favorite mount in Dalaran.

Bottom line: As the droprate is very low, and most people will need some "X"k casts to catch a turtle, you might aswell do something good for your guildmates along the way by focusing on these three kinds of fish.

As of 3.1.2 she now walks backwards normally and when you jump while standing still she pops into her shell and pops back out a couple seconds later.

Commentaire de 301079

There is something dreadfully horrible about this turtle, and it is the fact that it's shell has been crushed in on both sides to make room for the riders legs.

Commentaire de Zada

My personal 5 cents for catching this mount and rare catches in general:

Get Bejeweled addon (or maybe even Peggle), and play it while you fish! Just set your Ambience and Music volume down, and Effects volume up and you'll hear when you catch something (if no one else is fishing near you). Makes fishing a lot more painless. :) Listening to music while fishing makes it also more comfortable.

Just remember, all you can do is keep fishing... You will catch it eventually. ;)

i got this drop in the lake that's in borean tundra. i was like 200 something leveling up my fishing with a level one fishing pole and no bobber.

to be honest it's changed my life. before i was a loner, but only two days after riding this mount around dalaran (cuz that's its only worth) girls started climbing all over me and i won the powerball. great mount.

first paragraph is true.

Commentaire de darkwiz787

It's ALWAYs funny to see a DK/Smaman Waterwalking with one of these mounts. Ruins the purpose lol.

Commentaire de 357072

Actually, if the druid has Glyph of Aquatic Form, they're 40% faster. :P

Commentaire de Ateo

I've managed to catch four of these so far (on four different toons) and am now working on my fifth. All were caught while leveling fishing from around 250.

The first one took about 1200 casts; the second took 5 (!); the third took about 850, and the fourth took 1300. The fifth is going slowly: over 2000 casts and counting.

In my opinion, the most plentiful source of fishing pools in which to catch one of these mounts is the Moonglow Cuttlefish and Deep Sea Monsterbelly pools in the Frozen Sea south of Unu'pe. I generally see 5-6 pools when I arrive, and by the time I've fished them out 3 to 4 more have appeared.

Apart from days when Monsterbelly Appetite is the Dalaran fishing daily, the area is completely deserted. There are no mobs in the water and the risk of ganking is low to nil, so even a lower-level character can fish in peace.

The mount is a beaut, practical in certain situations, and relatively rare (I've only seen one other turtle so far on my realm, although naturally these mounts don't see much use in everyday play).

My one disappointment is that you can't fish from it. Maybe that gross oversight will be remedied sometime in the future. :)

Commentaire de 451044

I once was swimming on my honeymoon in Barbados and got attacked by a sea turtle. For this I will never obtain this mount. Sea turtles are truly evil creatures.

Commentaire de 485330

Ive noticed that with my particle and other graphics settings down, it is really difficult to see the fish pools. That being said, if you are having trouble seeing right where the pools are, try turning up your particle settings to max, and turn down other things if needed temporarily. Helps a ton!

Otherwise, been trying my luck with this guy for a cumulitive 6-8 hours now. Atm im flying back and forth between Moa'ki Harbor and the little lake just north of it. I dont really reccommend this area, there are not enough pools to keep going but I needed this type of fish.

I would however reccommend the big lake in Scholazar Basin in the northwestern corner. There are 5-6 pools in that lake, only annoying part is sometimes dodging the hydras, but I could loop nonstop for a solid few hours without seeing a single other player. (I think most people hang out at the River's Heart lake)

Commentaire de Unlocky

Edit: this post was written ~8 years ago. Since then, Cataclysm hit Azeroth and pandas are brewing beer on every continent. On top of that, the World of Warcraft's timelime was briefly rewritten and now the Legion is on our doorsteps again.
But the basics are still the same; you always ALWAYS fish in a school of fish to catch the Sea Turtle. Just be sure it's in areas made available in Wrath of the Lich King and beyond.

**On a sidenote, you can now farm for the Darkmoon Darkwater Skate. But the turtle is better since you won't get dismounted if you press Spacebar at the water surface. Same speed aswell**

Today I was finally rewarded for my persistence. I wish I could say that I got my Sea Turtle in my very first school of fish or somehing similar bullsh*t, but I can't.

Just a quick roundup since people are still confused:
1. Patch 3.3 introduced; no junk from northrend pools, you can now fish any pool successfully with skill 1.
2. Although you think you look absolutely fabu' astonishing in your fishing outfit (Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat, Mastercraft Kalu'ak Fishing Pole etc) there is no need for +fishing skills anymore, hence Patch 3.3
3. Ofcourse, if you do fancy the looks, by all means wear them.
4. There is no way that you can increase the drop chance of the turtle, it will always remain the same. You are not guaranteed a drop after a fixed number of catches, the RNG doesn't work that way - basicly each throw with your fishing line is your first, if you want to look at it that way.
5. The mount is still in the game.
6. YES! really, it actually still is in the game, you're just unlucky or impatient.
7. They removed the BoP warning a couple of patches ago, but its still very important to always have free bag slots, trust me. You will loose the last bit of sanity if you somehow accidently move out of range from loot window, are getting ganked or you close loot window by mistake while nervously trying to make a free bag slot.
8. Disregard any comments that claims they caught the turtle after 50 casts or in school number 4. It can happend for you, sure, but don't count on it.
9. Crusader Aura does not work with this mount.

What I do want to tell you is how I prepared myself for getting this very unique mount.
I choose 3 places to fish:

Musselback Sculpins from Lake Kum'uya

Deep Sea monsterbellys/Moonglow cuttlefish from Frozen Pools

Nettlefish from Sholozar Basin

Christmas vacation is long this year, so I figured I'd hit it.
As a standard rule I always assume that I have the worst possible starting point, so I disregarded every yarn from people that claim they caught a turtle in their third school of fish, caught it after 20 min or "lol didn't know it even existed when I fished for the first time!" or some similar sh*t.
Don't get me wrong, it happends, but even if all the posters that claims "one time hit wonders" on these pages are not lying, its still an incredible small amount of people out of nearly 12 million WoW players.

Basicly, I knew this was going to take alot of hours so why not optimize my time?
I choose the above places since Musselback Sculpins and Nettlefish are ingredients for Fish Feasts. I didn't make the feasts, I just sold the fishes and made quite an amount of gold from it.
The Deep Sea Monsterbellys are ingredients for Gigantic Feast but thats not the reason I choose this place since they practically don't sell on AH, atleast not on my server. I choose this place because from time to time I experienced other people fishing at Lake Kum'uya and Sholozar Basin so I moved to Frozen Pools because schools of fish are abundant here, basicly there are always schools ready to grab.

I began fishing the 18th december and what I basicly did was to "reserve" ingame time for fishing. I always made sure to have some kind of beverage in reach, favorite music and an alive guild chat, although you also have to watch your bobber, dont forget :D
Some days I fished 1 hour, another day 4 hours and again another day I fished for 3 hours. These hours were either straight or divided during the day; 30 min here, 50 min there etc.
Some days I had no problems fishing for 2 hours straight, but other days I welcomed breaks where I either did som irl stuff and came back after some time or simply did a random heroic instance with guildies. The new LFG tool is awsome because when you are done you get ported back at your fishing spot, perfect.

Today, 26th december, I started at Lake Kum'uya and had been fishing for ~20 min when 2 other players came. I was hoping they would bugger off quickly but they kept fishing so I used Blan B which was Frozen Pools.
I made my usual route 2 times among the icebergs when I settled down on a Moonglow cuttlefish school of fish and behold! - landed the Sea Turtle

Basicly I dont bring up any new facts, I just wanted to tell you my approach for farming the turtle.
The comments that suggest you kind of "romantice" it and leave behind the desire of the turtle while throwing your line for the 3956th time and merely see it as a joyfull way of raising your fishing skill, getting mats for Fish Feasts, earning gold, see the world and think of the turtle as a bonus, is either heavily sedated on anti-depressive drugs or, in my opinion, embellishing their own tedious farm story which only leads to false expectations.

As you can see my journey for the turtle was all but an adventure of fortune, I worked hard for that little bugger and you should expect to do so too.
Its all about luck and in my opinion you have to force your luck and fish continuously. But remember Blizzard's own words; take everything with moderation - even WoW ;-)

Good luck fishing to you all!, I sincerely hope you will use less time than I did.

Using the addon SpeedFu, here are (as of 3.1) some speed values.

Comparison
Unmounted: 100%
Epic Mount: 200%
Swimming: 67.5% (unmounted or mounted)

Sea Turtle
On land: 100%
In water: 108%

It's slower in water than a glyphed (and propably unglyphed as well) Druid Aquatic Form. However, the cool factor is through the roof ;)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I just fished this up in a Fangtooth Herring school on the Cauldros Isle, the Island above Utgarde Keep. I had been there for maybe 45 minutes trying to catch the rare fish "Dark Herring" but caught the turtle, which was a nice surprise. But I have to say that I spent my entire morning fishing in other areas like Borean Tundra and Grizzly Hills before I came to Howling Fjord. I probably fished a total of 2 1/2 hours before fishing the turtle up, so maybe the amount of time you put into fishing is a factor.

Got mine after 6-8h of fishing. My favourite spot is directly south of Unu'Pe (the Kalu'ak village in Borean Tundra) - theres two big ice bergs surrounded by some small icy patches. There should be three Fish Swarms in the area. Each one that you finish up WILL RESPAWN IMMEDIATELY in the area. Potions of Waterwalking help immensely.

I actually leveled my fishing for this mount. I started trying at 225 fishing after getting Nats Lucky Fishing pole, with a few +100 bobber, and a bunch of +75 bobbers. It took me about 400-500 casts. Got my fishing up to 295 when I got it to drop. I was too worried about missclicking my fishing that I ended up just mouse clicking the cast and bobbers. I guess I wasn’t super lucky as I had hoped, took me around 6 hours total of fishing it. Most of the time I was fishing it at the 6 glaciers south of Unu'pe. The pools were plentiful.

Just got mine last night. Took about a week farming for a total of 15 hours or so. I just put on some shows and watched them while I farmed. I highly recommend sholazar basin. I fished the river and lake with the hydras that its connected to. I found that those fish sell for the most (this is an underrated gold farm btw). I also found that I get way more Pygmy Suckerfish in that zone. It has to be out of the schools of fish, that I can confirm.

50% after1385 (7h 40)

99,99% after 18416 casts (100h)

Considering the number, one hour a day with you movie on a side and you should be fine.at most after a few week.
At worst, you will have made quite some more gold.

about 15 years later and here i am still no turtle. legend has it.... some poor guy was fishing in borean tundra. he had full bags and fished up the sea turtle from a pool. he was excited when he seen it, soo excited infact he moved and the loot window closed before he could loot it. so the sea turtle was lost forever. yeahh 14 year old me back in original wrath i caught the sea turtle and had full bags. i went to open my bags to delete something so i could loot it and accidentally moved which closed the loot window and the sea turtle mount was gone. i still remember the exact spot i was in too. i made a ticket and a GM told me that because i didnt loot it into my bags they couldnt replace it for me. lesson learned never have full bags when theres a chance to get a rare item... im pretty sure im the only person in the existance of the game to lose this mount this way. ive made posts over the years about it too so maybe someone remembers it lol

I guess I didn't post my stats. I was trying to get back and find it, my apologies. I caught this mount on my warrior after 3k casts. I did 2k or so in Howling Fjord. After I caught 2 Dark Herring back-to-back, I moved over to fishing in the ocean over by the ice bergs by Unu'pe. Fly there, go a little south-east. Take Water walking potions (lots), and come up with a rotation there. By the time you get back to the start, pools will have re-spawned. It's really a great area to farm the mount.

After more than 2.8k casts, i finally caught it!
Things i learnt:
1. Auto loot is fine, you must click Okay when the BoP window pops up.
2. Use the same mouse click to catch and cast every time, that small window of time for your mouse to move over to the cast button at action bar avoid you from accidentally screw up the BoP window.
3. It is very risky to use keyboard press to cast and mouse click to catch, as habit will form and you will cast catch quicker and quicker that cause high risk of cancelling the BoP window.
4. Patience. Some ppl found it below 1k casts (lucky ass!), some took 5/6k casts, i took about 2.8k casts.
5. I've tried a few fishing spots, The frozen sea (South of Tuskarr village of Unu'pe) is definitely the best spot, pools of fish spawns quickly as you go on a fishing rotation around ice bergs.
5. I committed fully for the first few days after my work (2-3 hrs/day) spending my entire night fishing, it gets so boring that i then decide to only do fishing after dun runs.
6. Pygsmy suckerfish sells for good price, at least there's something in the end of the day.
7. Good luck!

I received x2 'Sea Turtle' over 2 consecutive days on the same toon (yeah I messed up and cast over the loot window and lost the 1st one).
Turtle 1: 1,212 casts
Turtle 2: 643 casts
I did the circuit around the 2 major ice burgs in Borean Tundra circa location (30, 67).

Only fish in the schools of fish!
Use water walking to keep the speed (Elixir of Water Walking)
I used Double Right Click to cast and single Right click to look
Do not use hot keys for auto cast or you WILL mess up a drop like I did.... I cannot stress this part enough. When you have been fishing for a few hours and on auto pilot, it is too easy to not realise the Turtle dropped and you cast over the loot window.
It is ok to lose a second per cast/loot to GUARANTEE LOOTING THE TURTLE WHEN IT DROPS

Caught this yesterday in Sholazar Basin.
Went to do the Ghostfish quest, first pool I came to after using Wormhole I caught the Ghostfish first cast. Was about to hs to Dal and thought I should finish off the pool for feast mats. Next cast I caught it!
At over 7k fish (and other things) caught, it was about time in my opinion!
Good luck to all still after this mount!

Currently at 25,682 fish caught only from pools. No turtle. Posting this here so one day I might be able to comment again when it happens

Commentaire de slappylives

Hard to tell how many casts/pools/hours.... but I would estimate 3-4 hours of fishing in pools for me. Found him at "Rivers Heart" in a school of Nettlefish. Good luck everyone.

Commentaire de Rangefear

Has anyone got this from Lake Kum'uya?

Commentaire de Tablechair

I opened up this comment section to get an idea of how long it took for others to fish it up. Couple of throws later.. BAM! "Looting Sea Turtle will bind it to you"
Took me about 5.5k throws. Mostly fishing from Fangtooth pools in Howling Fjord and Musselback pools in Borean Tundra, the latter is where it dropped for me.

Commentaire de Cyprus69

Got mine today, Roughly ~4100 pools fished in total, bulk of it was fished directly south of Unu'Pe (the Kalu'ak village in Borean Tundra).

Commentaire de Arddy24

It's December 2023 and I'm on WOTLK Classic.

Just want to post that this is still very possible to get and I followed one of the posts suggesting Deepsea Monster Belly pools. Note -
- I only fished pools
- I had 0 fishing skills, and maxed it at 75 (didn't go back to upgrade fishing)
- Fishing rod with no lures used
- I've seen a level 1 toon have this mount in Orgrimmar. It IS a Bind-On-Pick-Up, therefore this toon had its level 80 friend fly him around Northrend to fish it out themselves.
- Took about 150-200 catches to land it.
- Same speed as run speed
- It's 100% speed in water

Make sure you have space in your inventory after all the catches, to pick it up!

Good luck, and Happy fishing!

Will probably get a lot of hate for this, but damn I'm lucky

Got mine in about two hours of fishing pools. I find that fishing for Nettlefish in Sholozar is probably the best way to have a pretty constant selection of pools to fish from. Fish the pools in River's Heart, then head north up the river that leads to the large lake to the north (between Glimmering Pillar and The Maker's Perch on your map), fishing all the pools in that lake, and then reverse back down to River's Heart. The river that connects them will also have several pools that spawn. If you are 80, you shouldn't draw aggro from anything while fishing but if you are lower, you may have to contend with aggro from the hydras in the large lake a bit in places.

Either way, the best way to get this as soon as possible is to maximize the number of pools you fish in per hour.
